The jury deliberated for less than two hours in Bowie County, about 145 miles east of Dallas before handing down the death sentence to the young woman, TXK Today reported. She had been convicted of capital murder on October 3 of Reagan Michell Simmons-Hancock, 21, and her infant daughter in New Boston in October 2020.
“My only biological sister. You need to understand what you took from me and my family. No more celebrating her birthday. I was barely 19 when I got the call my sister was gone,” Emily Simmons, the victim’s sister, said to Parker in an emotional victim impact statement before jurors began deliberating, the Texarkana Gazette reported.
“She will never be my maid of honor. If I visit my sister I have to go to a graveyard and see a headstone. I will never get a text or phone call her from again.”
Simmons-Hancock’s mother, Jessica Brooks, described Parker as an “evil piece of flesh demon.”
“My baby was alive still fighting for her babies when you tore her open and ripped her baby from her stomach,” the heartbroken mom said.

Parker had faked her own pregnancy in the ten months prior to the murder. She concocted the scheme to keep her boyfriend from leaving her, prosecutors explained. She went as far as wearing pregnancy disguises, posted her pregnancy online and used fake ultrasound photos. She even threw a gender reveal party for the nonexistent baby.
Parker previously had a hysterectomy and told her boyfriend that she would be induced to deliver the baby the day of the murder.

According to prosecutors, she intensively researched how to fake a pregnancy and watched many videos on delivering babies pre-term at 35 weeks, which is how far along Simmons-Hancock was when she was brutally murdered.
On the morning of Oct. 9, 2020, Parker crushed Simmons-Hancock’s skull with a hammer and stabbed her more than 100 times in her home before removing her baby from her womb with a scalpel. Parker fled with the infant — a girl who later died.
After her sentencing, Parker was to be moved to the Mountain View Unit in Gatesville, Texas, where the state houses its female death row inmates.
